Mrs. Lucy Hutchinson (1620 - ?) was an English biographer.

The daughter of Sir Allan Apsley , Lieutenant of the Tower of London, she married in 1638 Colonel John Hutchinson, one of those who signed the death-warrant of King Charles I of England, but who afterwards protested against the assumption of supreme power by Oliver Cromwell. She has a place in literature for her biography of her husband, one of the most interesting in the language, not only because of its immediate subject, but of the light which it throws upon the characteristics and conditions of the life of Puritans of good family. Originally intended for her family only, it was printed by a descendant in 1806, and cleared away many false impressions about the narrowness and austerity of the educated Puritans.

Hutchinson's works included 'Order and Disorder', possibly the first epic written by a woman in the English language. The work is a verse rendition of the book of Genesis, offering parallel's to John Milton's 'Paradise Lost'. Although only five cantos of the work were published in her lifetime, in 2001 the critic David Norbrook published the work in full.
